BOOT ROM / MKII * HELP *

[stratos]

Doing some preventive maintenance.
I installed the ROM, per instructions.
Brought up FB in Utility mode with 5.01 load set.
Powered up.
FXII boots up normal, no issues.
Do I need to flash the ROM, or just pull J26 and use the procedure in the event of a fail-boot scenario?

Thanks guys!

I opened a ticket after making this post. I found that "many" are quite willing to offer assistance when someone needs help immediately.
BTW, I am a user, and have been one since the legacy product days.

In a fail-boot scenario disconnect the Axe-Fx from power, carefully open the case and place the jumper over J26. I would recommend to ground yourself when working inside the Axe-Fx. Then reconnect power and turn the Axe-Fx on. Install the desired firmware and power off the Axe-Fx again. Disconnect power and remove the jumper from J26. After that reconnect power and the Axe-Fx should start normally again.
